For fans of Eat Pray Love and Maybe You Should Talk to Someone, a therapist's tale of mid-life sexual awakening as she bravely explores relationships, sex, and pleasure - and learns that it's never too late to desire and be desired. Is it ever too late to connect to the sexual part of yourself? At forty-eight years old, after her husband announced he had fallen in love with a man, Alisa Kriegel was determined to finally figure out this essential part of herself. As a psychologist, she had the tools to help others; now, it was time to help herself. Alisa's bold and vulnerable story told with honesty and humour, shows us that it's possible to have a sexual awakening - and to experience the thrill of feeling desired - at any age. Letting go of decades of shame and giving herself permission for pleasure was just the beginning of jumping into a series of adventures in online dating, sex, and romance. From sex clubs in New York City to a canoe trip in the Canadian wilderness, this memoir offers readers an insight-filled journey into one woman's mid-life discoveries about sex, love, and relationships - and a behind-the-scenes, in-depth analysis of women's sexuality.
